Biometric application programming interface (BioAPI)

Innovatrics’ solutions conform to the Biometric Information Record (BIR) header structure defined in ISO/IEC 19784-1.

BioAPI is an application-programming-interface standard: it lets a calling application swap one biometric software component (a Biometric Service Provider) for another without changing its own code. Among other things, it defines the BIR — the same header concept that CBEFF later generalised into its own, technology-independent framework.
